Recomend K HUTTON

young trainer... very honest and hardworking

Gotta be Budgie Porter,he get well looked after.

d porter . never had any problems with him

Nick Colton is very good with young dogs and a pretty good trainer as well

Walden very under estimated

Where do you live Elsworth?

Top of Stow judge list is the best has not got 60 plus dogs like the rest only has about 20 and thats why he gets the results.

are there really 30+ trainers at a bags track??

no, the ones with less than 500 runners in the above list would be open racers from other tracks

or maybe not. Those with 750 runners. Data is from the start of 2008

Ray Jones and Kevin Hutton have always been regarded as the best at Swindon.

Kevin Hutton is a young guy very enthusiastic does a good job and nice bloke, what more could you want

R J Gilling good trainer, loves his dogs

Id sooner not ever run it then go to swindon
I fell sorry for the dog
Make it a M&S Dog and go to Oxford

So which trainer did you opt for Elsworthfan? And how did things go?

Anyone else have any opinions on Swindon trainers? This thread has been inactive for over 2 years so maybe there are some more up-to-date views... A post above mentioned Ray Jones having fewer dogs/runners and suggested that maybe they get more individual attention which pays off at the track. What about locality of the kennels? Will your dog run less often if it 'lives' an hour's drive away as opposed to 10-15 mins?

still Kevin Hutton for me, done very well since the original post on the open scene, got a 700 quid dog to a St Leger final says alot

Anyone had any dogs with PR Foster? Record looks impressive in the above list.

Huttons your man,well in with the management,dont bother with the smaller trainers they get treated like something you stepped in

huttons well in with the management?

Its probably cos the dogs are run straight and maintain their form well as a result that he has the best figures at the track.

also,hutton must be well in with hove and oxford management judging by the number of open race wins he has there,must have some fkin tongue on him to work the arsh0le of 3 racing offices,no wonder his mrs is always smiling.

sammy must be jealous his ring aint getting a rimming.

burrough,paul is a nice guy,dogs always look immaculate has his kennels at the track,hutton is in burford nr oxford.

Heres huttons blog.

Last time I saw Paul, he had Micky Lawlor working with him - two for the price of one, and they can both do a dog!

Going by the stats above, seems like a relatively small number of dogs at his kennels
